Friday, 19 April 2013

4BR has been informed that due to work commitments, the Jackfield (Elcock Reisen) Band have a change of conductor for the Senior Trophy at the Spring Festival in Blackpool on 11th May.

Delighted

Regular MD, Simon Platford told 4BR: "Unfortunately, due to work commitments I’m unable to take the band at the contest. I’m delighted that the experienced John Ward, who led Milnrow Band to a victory in the Senior Trophy on ‘Spectrum’ a few years back, will be leading the band on what is the band’s Spring Festival debut."
